Welcome home Bob and Karen. This is actually one of the best reports I have ever read here on Fodor's......thank you!

Awaiting those pictures too....haven't heard from you for a while so I suspect you are editing them even as I write,lol.

Aloha!

Carol, we got back a day before Bob and am working on it. Been busy catching up at work(some of us have too) and our daughters missed their usual Thanksgiving so we did it Sunday, wow now I know why we left,lol.
Pics almost done and will be first followed by an analysis.

Aloha!

We've got approximately 6,000 pictures from India! Trying to cull through them, delete many and photoshop them. What a job.

Take your time, Bob - just remember that I only have time to look at 1500 or so...

This is an amazing report! (Just got caught up on my reading.) I loved your recap, and I agree completely that a car and driver is the way to go in India. Can't tell you how many times my husband and I looked at each other and said, "Thank God we aren't trying to do this on our own."

I can't believe you wrote all this as you went along. Knowing how draining India can be, that is a real accomplishment!

What a fab report. Your wrap up, while still on your way home was so full of not just facts but I got the feelings too. You made me really re-consider India.
I began reading this report just knowing, really knowing I would never go to India, as I am (and have been warned by my physician) not to subject myself to tummy troubles, yet, your report and wrap up, i.e. your afterglow of this trip really spoke to me as something I should do before the time that I can no longer easily travel.
Bob & Karen, you are an inspiration for those of us who LOVE travel and yearn for captivating experiences. Vince and I are in your age bracket yet still looking to discover something new.
Looking forward to your pics, as always.
Thanks again for taking us all along with you on your latest adventure. And, I guess some of Andy was with you all the way.
Enjoy your bed at home
Sue

2000-3000... no time for cocktails

rhkkmk Dec 7th, 2011 06:04 AM

i am having trouble uploading and titling my pics, do you want to see them in a raw state??? i will edit them down of course

Your report was interesting and helpful. It gave me much insight and many tips even though our travel styles are miles apart. Writing this was a ton of effort on your part, and, as someone else said, it is incredible that you were able to write this while on the go. Or, perhaps it was just that Delhi belly had you more confined to your room than you might otherwise have been and this was a productive way to spend your time between trips to the bathroom. :) Hope al is well now that you are back in the US.

rhkkmk Dec 7th, 2011 12:44 PM

i find that i lose tip bits quickly if i don't write immediately... plus no big back log when i get home..

dgunbug Dec 7th, 2011 02:43 PM

I'm fine with raw footage.

kmkrnn Dec 7th, 2011 03:14 PM

The photos of you and K putting Andy's ashes to rest in the Chao Phraya and at the ROS are particularly moving...
